At InterWorks, we have always been a group of tinkerers. Near the end of last year, we had the opportunity to launch the Amazon SageMaker for Tableau integration, a production-ready open-source analytics extension that enables organizations to bring the power of machine learning into their...

As 2020 was coming to a close at InterWorks, we were approached with a unique problem from an organization we greatly respect. Amazon has been at the forefront of cloud computing for the better part of my career, and in recent years, they have been...
Welcome back to our mini-series on Snowflake External Functions with AWS Lambda. Before we proceed, please read the previous post on how to set up these functions and how Snowflake interacts with AWS Lambda. API Knowledge Disclaimer If you are unfamiliar with APIs and how they work,...
Recently, Snowflake implemented a new feature that allows its standard functionality to be extended through the use of external functions. Among several other capabilities is the ability to create AWS Lambda functions and call them within Snowflake. This has unlocked a whole new realm of...
It's certainly a weird time to be a human on the planet, but here at InterWorks, we're grateful for the opportunities to grow, stretch and challenge ourselves. We've also been making the most of the extra time on some of our hands—we published 28 new...
I had a situation with a client where they had a new AWS account and wanted to create an online storage folder area where a third party could upload JSON files, that could then later be ingested into Snowflake. They had no experience with AWS,...

Python is quickly becoming the first programming language exposed to non-tech folks. While working on my data pipeline, I found a perfect example of how you can use Python to bring external data into your reporting environment – especially when the host of this data...
